Josh. 18:1–10 That the assembly gathers before the tent of meeting, or tabernacle (see Ex. 27:21; 40:2), recalls Israel’s history under Moses. Shiloh serves as the central sanctuary that Israel was to establish in the land (Deut. 12:10–11). Shiloh was likely destroyed following the battle of Ebenezer (1 Samuel 4; Jer. 26:6); it was replaced as central sanctuary by Jerusalem in King David’s time. Mention of the God of your fathers evokes God’s promise of land to the patriarchs (see note on Josh. 1:2). The Lord has fulfilled all his “good promises” (21:45).
Josh. 18:7 The Levites have no portion among you. See note on 13:14. This verse prepares for assigning Levitical cities throughout the territories in ch. 21.
Josh. 18:9 wrote in a book. Or on a scroll, or some other writing material (the term does not specify).
Josh. 18:11 Though one of the smaller tribes, Benjamin would be significant as the tribe of Israel’s first king, Saul (1 Sam. 9:21).
